– suspect held 
Two families are giving different versions of how a 25-year-old man ended up dead from stab wounds at around 19.30hrs Wednesday at Patentia, West Coast Demerara.
Dellon Bradford, called ‘Chicken’, of Skull City, Patentia, died at the West Demerara Regional Hospital after collapsing on a roadway with stab wounds to the back, stomach and arm-pit.
Police had earlier detained a woman and a male relative, but Kaieteur News understands that only one man is at present in custody.
Branford had fathered three children, aged seven, two and one. Police sources said that an arrest warrant was out for Bradford, who had failed to return to court to answer to a robbery charge. Police sources alleged that he would secrete himself in the nearby canefields when police were in the area.
According to police officials, the mother of Bradford’s children lives a short distance away from his residence, and at around 19.30 hrs on Wednesday, she accused him of breaking into her residence when no one was at home, and making off with $200,000.
It is alleged that Bradford punched her after she confronted him with the allegation.
Some of the woman’s relatives reportedly then stabbed him.
But Bradford’s relatives allege that the woman’s relatives attacked him after the couple had an altercation over her drinking.
They claimed that Bradford’s reputed wife was drinking at a house a short distance from his residence, when he asked her to come home and look at the children. When she refused, he reportedly slapped her. It was then that the woman’s relatives stabbed Bradford.
Some of Bradford’s associates said that the wounded man ran towards them. He reportedly said “you see what they do to me?” he then collapsed.
The friends then rushed him to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation where he succumbed.
